You can check with your local automotive parts store there is a 1/2" drive2 1/8" socket used on 4x4 hubs & full floating rear axle, it isn't a fancy chrome one but does the job, here was less than $20.00 CDN here ( a mere pittance in the States)

Earnest,
If you don't have the 2 1/8" socket, hit a few pawn shops. I found one
for $5 the day after I paid $23 for a Craftsman. Everything else was 'on
hand'.
I made an 'adapter' with a piece of 1" square steel stock about 2' long,
cut one end down to 3/4" with a bandsaw to fit the socket, supported the
free end on a bucket & turned the whole affair with a big pipe wrench &
a 4' cheater bar. 3" x3" angle bolted to the flywheel to hold the engine
stable.
